    Saying some Jews have white privilege at some times and not at others is not a lie. It's the damn truth. It's a global truth. Please LISTEN TO JEWS OF COLOR PRESENT THEIR NARRATIVES WITHOUT ASKING "IS IT GOOD FOR THE JEWS?" MNUCHIN IS NOT GOOD FOR THE JEWS OR MILLER OR JAVANKA.

        When you're Black, Gay and Jewish you learn all about intersectional love and hate. Being a jerk is universal. But so is the potential to make the world richer and better off. All three of my groups have those potentialities. And when we play the jerk...I wanna know why.

        Remember it took almost an entire century to get from the first modern bat mitzvah to Women of the Wall being a supreme court worthy issue. This conversation about "race" and Jewish identity is overdue. And it will not be finished any time soon. Nor is it convenient.

        True! It's almost like Whiteness is a mutable, shifting historical phenomenon which Jews like me have neither been wholly disassociated from nor enjoyed in wholly unadulterated fashion!

        It's hard because white-presenting Jews don't fit neatly into a box. Neither white nor non-white, but white-privileged, yes, in most situations. But that's...a lot of characters in a Census box or survey.

        And there are the subsets like pale skin but non-European features: Dark, curly, hair, textured hair that grows up and out; "oddly"-shaped noses; slightly hooded dark eyes; thick eyebrows; dark body hair, who can present as "white" but don't look "white" enough for white people

        Replying to @Ndreajess @TofuForBrains and

        In order to look "white" enough for white people, Jews have to look like WASPs - blond, straight hair, eyes that aren't dark, small nose. (For some Jewish men, dating or marrying a blond-haired Jewish woman who doesn't "look" Jewish is preferable.)

        It's true. It's also true some of those features apply to other Mediterranean/ middle-Eastern populations that are still classified as "white." However...

        ....the treatment of Jews as a "race" by white supremacists, and the systematized bigotry that results, is part of why I find the term "white" so problematic in reference to white-presenting Jews.

        Jews do not care about your silly crazy extreme left wing concepts and your obsession with the skin color of people. Only racists care about it.

        Jews are not a one-opinion group, and making those kind of generalizations is exactly the problem here.

        Guilt by group privilege was designed to knock white folks down a few pegs but what it actually accomplished was make Jews more vulnerable than we have been in nearly 75 years.

        A guy in our group got thrown out because he chewed me out for pointing out racism in the Jewish community. He then blasted me for being a convert "so I wouldn't understand that it was divisive" to point out racism.

        It seems to me you are COMPLETELY cut off from 95% of World Jews. You seem an affable soul- have a positive vibe, but, no, you don’t get to make up what you think Judaism is. A Jew could be any ethnicity, Chinese, Indian, but NO Judaism isn’t Chinese, Indian...

        Sure, when you're ready to admit that black priviledge exists as well, and that many benefit from black priviledge.
